Hypothermia DLO

These few days, we made a DLO about hypothermia. This is the slideshow we made. We were doing this learning because we are going on camp.

Quick Writes Term 4

We have been working on Quick Writes. This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10 minutes to write as much as possible using this writing prompt. For our writing prompts we will use either images or short videos.

1)FIREWORKS

Fireworks

As the fireworks erupted from the museum, the smell was insanely strong. It smelt of gunpowder and ash like in a warzone. I watched the karaka (orange) fireworks burst from the building. It looked like a fire or a terrorist attack that was completely obliterating the building. The crowd was amazed by all the fireworks. It sounded like gunfire shattering the silence. It surprised lots of people watching and I knew this because there was a big yell that sounded like they were startled. Anyone inside the building would feel blinding or suffocated by all the smoke. The crowd was going chaotic and yelling. The smoke was smothering and surrounding everyone now and it was heavy and dense. I put my hand in the smoke and it was hot and fluffy. It was wonderful.

2)TOMATO PULP

Tōmato (tomato) Whawhai (fight)

I ran over to where the tōmato (tomato) whawhai (fight) was commencing. The annual fight happens in a Spanish village called Bunol, near Valencia. There were tomatoes everywhere and I was already getting them stuck in between my toes. I picked one up and threw one at someone standing about 5 meters away from me. They spun around and threw one at me. There were more people coming now and the fight was on! There were flying tomatoes everywhere whizzing right past my head like bullets in a war. Some people were wearing goggles to protect their eyes. I felt the seeds going in between my toes. It was disgusting!

3)SPIDER MAN

Spiderman

As I walked over to the Spiderman parade I saw confetti flying everywhere. I could hear lots of noise of people talking to each other and yelling. There were lots and lots of different colours everywhere. It was in New York City and there was kai (food) and the aroma of petrol. I could smell smoke and food everywhere. I could hear cars and buses zooming everywhere. It was wonderful.
